To make “North of North,” creators Stacey Aglok MacDonald and Alethea Arnaquq-Baril had to do what no one had done before: build a full-scale scripted TV production in the Arctic, where infrastructure is scarce and costs are high.
Co-commissioned by CBC, Netflix and Indigenous network APTN, the acclaimed comedy stars Anna Lambe as Siaja, a young Inuk mother who leaves an unfulfilling marriage to reinvent her life in the close-knit fictional Arctic community of Ice Cove. For the creators, the series could only be filmed in Iqaluit — the capital of Nunavut, the northernmost territory of Canada.

The first season of North of North on Netflix was an invigorating discovery: a Canadian import whose lead actress, Anna Lambe, radiated joy and curiosity and whose fictional Arctic town of Ice Cove, with its entrenched traditions and myriad eccentrics, was a solid basis for sitcom high jinks. The series’ second season is invigorating, too, but in a different way, like an icy wind finding its way under your scarf, or a snowball exploding into a puff of powder on your face. These are, to be clear, good things — surprise reminds you that you’re alive! And North of North, which was a surprise out of the gate, now surprises again with a deft tonal pivot.
